Step 501: An M2M gateway receives data sent from the terminal peripheral according to a preset rule.

Here, the preset rule may include a format, contents, a frequency, a priority and the like for receiving data.

The data may be monitoring data of the terminal peripheral, such as temperature, humidity and brightness, or may be information data of the terminal peripheral, such as node information, state information and capability information.

Step 502: The M2M gateway stores the data sent from the terminal peripheral according to a preset rule.

Here, the preset rule may be a mode for storing the data by the M2M gateway, such as a mode for storing the data by classification. In an actual application, a data storage list may be locally created in the M2M gateway so as to indicate the type of the stored data.

Step 503: The M2M gateway forwards the received data to an M2M application or an M2M service platform.

Specifically, when the data are the information data of the terminal peripheral, the received data are directly forwarded to the M2M application or the M2M service platform.

The stored data are monitored when the data are the monitoring data of the terminal peripheral, and are forwarded to the M2M application or the M2M service platform when satisfying a threshold defined by a service. In an actual application, the stored data may be detected according to the preset rule, wherein the preset rule may be a mode for detecting the data by the M2M gateway, such as a mode for detecting the data by classification, specifically, a data priority list may be locally created in the M2M gateway so as to indicate the level of the stored data; the M2M gateway further sets a retrieval frequency for the data according to the priority of the data, namely, the higher the level value is, the higher the retrieval frequency is; and the lower the level value is, the lower the retrieval frequency is.

Step 506: The M2M gateway judges whether the priority of the received remote management operation is not lower than that of the operation information; when it is not lower than the priority of the operation information, step 507 is executed; otherwise, step 508 is executed.

Step 511: The M2M gateway processes the remote management operation according to the received remote management operation execution information, and reports a remote management result to the M2M application or the M2M service platform.

Specifically, when the operation execution information includes the execution success indicator, the M2M gateway locally removes the remote management operation of the terminal peripheral corresponding to the identifier of the terminal peripheral in the operation execution information, records the state value in the operation execution information, and reports successful execution of the remote management to the M2M application or the M2M service platform;

when the operation execution information includes the execution failure indicator, the M2M gateway re-sends the remote management operation of the terminal peripheral corresponding to the identifier of the terminal peripheral in the local operation execution information according to a preset re-sending time; and when the remote management operation expires or has reached the preset re-sending time, the M2M gateway locally removes the remote management operation of the terminal peripheral corresponding to the identifier of the terminal peripheral in the operation execution information, records the failure reason value in the operation execution information, and reports unsuccessful execution of the remote management to the M2M application or the M2M service platform.

The M2M gateway carries out subsequent remote management according to the operation execution information fed back by the terminal peripheral, so that the remote management is more targeted and the terminal peripheral can be remotely managed effectively.

Step 602: The M2M gateway stores the data sent from the terminal peripheral according to a preset rule, and forwards the data to an M2M service platform.

Here, the preset rule may be a mode for storing the data by the M2M gateway, such as a mode for storing data by classification. In an actual application, a data storage list may be locally created in the M2M gateway so as to indicate the type of the stored data.

Step 603: The M2M service platform stores the data sent from the M2M gateway according to a preset rule.

Here, the preset rule may be a mode for storing the data by the M2M service platform, such as a mode for storing data by classification. In an actual application, a data storage list may be locally created in the M2M service platform so as to indicate the type of the stored data.

Step 604: An M2M application queries the data of the terminal peripheral by sending an information query operation to the M2M service platform.

Here, the information query operation contains an identifier of the terminal peripheral.

Step 605: The M2M service platform receives the information query operation sent from the M2M application, and sends the data of the terminal peripheral corresponding to the identifier in the information query operation locally stored to the M2M application by an information feedback operation.

Here, the remote management operation may include the identifier of the terminal peripheral, such as operation information, effective time and priority information.

Step 607: The M2M gateway receives the remote management operation sent from the M2M application or the M2M service platform, and retrieves whether operation information, which corresponds to the terminal peripheral and is of the same type as the remote management operation, locally exists in the M2M gateway according to the identifier of the terminal peripheral contained in the remote management operation; when the operation information exists, step 608 is executed; otherwise, step 611 is executed.

Step 608: The M2M gateway judges whether the priority of the received remote management operation is higher than that of the operation information; when it is higher than the priority of the operation information, step 609 is executed; otherwise, step 610 is executed.

Step 609: The M2M gateway replaces the operation information with the received remote management operation, and sends the received remote management operation to the terminal peripheral corresponding to the identifier to execute step 612.

Step 610: The M2M gateway discards the received remote management operation to end the flow.

Step 611: The M2M gateway stores the received remote management operation, and sends the received remote management operation to the terminal peripheral corresponding to the identifier.

Step 612: The M2M gateway receives remote management operation execution information fed back by the terminal peripheral.

namely, the operation execution information may contain the two following conditions:

A: identifier of the terminal peripheral+execution success indicator+state value; and

B: identifier of the terminal peripheral+execution failure indicator+failure reason value.

Step 613: The M2M gateway processes the remote management operation according to the received remote management operation execution information, and reports a remote management result to the M2M application.

Specifically, when the operation execution information includes the execution success indicator, the M2M gateway locally removes the remote management operation of the terminal peripheral corresponding to the identifier of the terminal peripheral in the operation execution information, records the state value in the operation execution information, and reports successful execution of the remote management to the M2M application;

when the operation execution information includes the execution failure indicator, the M2M gateway re-sends the remote management operation of the terminal peripheral corresponding to the identifier of the terminal peripheral in the local operation execution information according to a preset re-sending time; and when the remote management operation expires or has reached the preset re-sending time, the M2M gateway locally removes the remote management operation of the terminal peripheral corresponding to the identifier of the terminal peripheral in the operation execution information, records the failure reason value in the operation execution information, and reports unsuccessful execution of the remote management to the M2M application.
